Ingredients
- 2 ounces Fresh lime juice
- 1 ounce Fresh orange juice
- 2 ounces Tequila (silver or reposado)
- 1 ounce Cointreau (or any orange-flavored liqueur)
- 10 drops Liquid stevia or monk fruit sweetener
- 3 pieces Jalapeño slices
- 1 tablespoon Kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 cup Ice cubes
- 1 piece Lime wedge
Directions
Step 1
Begin by preparing the rim of your glass. On a small plate, mix the kosher salt and chili powder. Run the lime wedge around the rim of the glass, then dip the rim into the salt-chili mixture to coat it evenly. Set the glass aside.
Step 2
In a cocktail shaker, add the sliced jalapeño pieces. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to lightly muddle the jalapeños to release their spice and flavor.
Step 3
Add the fresh lime juice, fresh orange juice, tequila, Cointreau, and liquid stevia or monk fruit sweetener into the cocktail shaker.
Step 4
Fill the shaker with the ice cubes, then securely cover it with the lid. Shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to chill and combine the ingredients.
Step 5
Strain the margarita into the prepared glass over fresh ice, ensuring the jalapeño pieces do not transfer unless desired.
Step 6
Garnish with an extra lime wedge or jalapeño slice, if preferred, and serve immediately. Enjoy your Sugar-Free Spicy Margarita!
